Effect of chemotherapy on dental maturity in children with hematological malignancies.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dental maturity or dental age was determined in 44 children with hematological malignancies treated with chemotherapy. No significant difference was observed between the chronological and dental age in children treated with chemotherapy compared to healthy controls. With regard to the number of erupted permanent teeth, no significant differences could be found between the two groups. The results indicate that chemotherapy given to children with hematological malignancies did not interfere with dental maturity or eruption of permanent teeth.
